into the us, that dan was to have been lifted under donald trump's presidency. mr biden believes this is not the time to do that. and you mentioned, that vast bill, nearly $2 trillion thatjoe biden would like to see past which would include measures for more vaccinations, more coronavirus testing and of course, money for those who have lost their jobs because of the pandemic. many republicans are wary of the size of the bill. they say that borrowing lots of money, trillions of dollars from the chinese at this particular time, is not the best way to go about combating the problems affecting the us economy. the democrats and indeed the new senate majority leader chuck schumer made it clear today that they intend to press ahead regardless. lam i am hopeful that republicans will see — i am hopeful that republicans will see the need but if they don't. — will see the need but if they don't, there are tools we can use _

great britain about their report out today, which talks about the widening gap 20 rich and the poor, because of the pandemic, and what can be done to solve that problem. stay with us. see you in a moment. hello. monday will start with widespread frost and ice after a wintry weekend which, of course, brought some significant snow in places. it won't be the last covid—secure snowman we see sent in to us this winter and, hopefully, sunday's weather did bring a bit of fun at least. but of course, more people have to be out in the morning, and so that does mean some difficult conditions on untreated roads because it will be icy in places with that widespread frost. after further wintry showers overnight and into the morning across parts of scotland, rain and sleet on the coasts, some snow inland and into the hills. maybe the odd shower into northern ireland and northern england but, actually, monday is one of the better weather days of the week. most places will be dry,

variable cloud, decent amount of sunshine and it will feel a bit less cold than it did over the weekend. into monday night, still some showers, wintry in nature, particularly to hills, affecting parts of scotland, northern ireland and northern england. still frosty and icy, although temperatures start to come up across western areas as we see another system heading our way. and that's going to spread its rain and a bit of hill snow it brings a bit more rain, as do others that follow this week, so if you are in a flood—affected area, certainly worth keeping across conditions near you. not as much rain as last week, but more rain isn't necessarily what you want. we see some rain spreading further north and east during tuesday, into the colder air. at least hill snow into parts of northern england and scotland, and the chance as tuesday comes to an end, especially in scotland, some

snow even to low levels here. whereas further south, it turns a bit more milder, but of course, it is wetter. as we go into wednesday, the next weather system will start to move in. looks like it's a pretty slow affair, bringing its rain to the south—west initially, and it is of course the source of milderair coming in from the atlantic. but running into that cold air towards the north and east, it does set up a bit of a battle, and as that battle takes place during wednesday, again as the wet weather starts to move in, as it moves further north and east, there's the chance of seeing some snow out of that, particularly as we get into wednesday night. although some parts are turning milder this week, it isn't going to last because by the end of the week and into the weekend, the colder air will come south again and there is the chance again next weekend of some parts seeing a bit of snow. that's the forecast.
